The MAX FRANK threaded socket connections are used where the conventional splice joint is not practical or not permitted. They are also used where rebending is not possible due to the rebar diameter. The rebar connection usually consists of a threaded bar with a pre-mounted threaded coupler for the 1st construction phase as well as the continuation bar for screwing in during the 2nd construction phase. Threaded coupler connections offer an efficient and cost-effective way to connect reinforcing bars under permanent and dynamic loads.
